The night is very cold and the wind howls down from the north across the field.On the second watch, Geenaa and Lorien hear the sounds of howling coming from the east. Some kind of wolves, but they are fairly far off and don't seem to come any closer. In the morning, stiff and sore, the party awakens and Lorien again looks to pick up the trail…Tracking survival roll 6 +12 =18. Second roll, 14 +12 =26…but it is far harder to pick up here. After about and hour, he finds a faint trail, leading somewhat south and east. Tracking survival 4 +12 =16, second roll to re-find trail 15 +12 =27.After about and hour of slow movement, he loses the trail for a while but is able to pick it back up after another hour or two of searching. It is approaching mid-day when he starts moving the party west, and the trail is now leading back somewhat the way they came. The bandits must have cut back on themselves a few times on this rocky terrain. Only an experienced ranger would have much of a chance of following them… Tracking for the next hour, Tracking roll 11 +12 =23, losing it again. Second roll 19 +12 =31…he is frustrated and loses the trail again, but then he finds a track that must have hit some mud, and a some other clear signs that are almost to well hidden. Lorien leads the group out of the hardened plain and out onto the Mark. Tracking 19 +12 =31 It is easy for him to follow the trail now, even if it is over a week old. The trail leads to the south of Phandish… and leading straight west towards the Gnarely Forest. The rest of the day, the party follows Lorien's lead as the huge forest slowly grows on the horizon. By nightfall, the trail starts to angle northwesterly.Tracking roll 8 +12 =20, barely    By nightfall, the trail is starting to go cold, and it might be best to again camp. If it cuts into the forest, it will be almost impossible for Lorien to easily follow.Again setting up a cold camp, the forest near by is dark and ominous. As watches are set up, those on first watch hear roars and screams of pain from the dark woods, sleep for the others is not easy. On last watch, Norbac and Defrel notices a bright light to the northeast, out on the plain. They think it might be a large fire… more then a bomb-fire, at least a home or maybe larger depending on how far away it is (they are not sure)</blockquote>
